My 2nd great grandfather, Jeremiah Griffin, was born abt 1805 in County Kerry. He married Julia McCrohan and had 2 daughters in Ireland before emigrating to Canada settling in Whitby, Ontario some time before 1848 where the 3rd of his 10 children was born.

Jeremiah died 21 Jul 1882 and is buried at St John's Roman Catholic Cemetery in Whitby, Ontario.

His wife Julia's death registration indicates that she was born in County Cork but I've found who I believe is her sister, Mary, who married Timothy Foley in Glenbeigh, County Kerry leading me to believe that Julia was also born in County Kerry.
